When walking, the feet valiantly soak up the body'sweight with each step. With jogging, they absorb even more—up to fourtimes the body's weight. People with active and busy lives may takeabout 10,000 strides each day, or a lifetime equivalent of four lapsaround the world! As a result, foot ailments can become quite common.

The reason I feel this shoe would help other people is because myhusband is a diabetic, He had stepped on a nail, in the heel of hisfoot, after going threw several different doctors and several attemptsat angioplasty the only conclusion came to be that the doctors wanted toremove my husbands foot. I then heard about a Doctor at the woundcenter, he told me we had to get some circulation in my husbands foot,the only way to do that was to have my husband walk on The front of hisfoot, He had to keep his heel off the floor and ground at all times.This is how I came up with the circulation shoe, it helped pump blood tothe heel of the foot, which caused the wound to start healing.
